Metabolism is all the chemical reactions that occur within an organism. Metabolism has two-way trajectory organic chemical reactions‚ namely catabolism to unravel molecular organic compounds to gain energy‚ and anabolime of reactions that compose organic compounds of certain molecules‚ which will be absorbed by the body cells. The second track is required by the organism to survive. But with age someone then your metabolism will slow down. It required a variety of ways and methods to speed up the

Edward F. Coyle’s article‚ Fat Metabolism During Exercise: New Concept‚ focuses on answering the question to “what limits the rate at which people can convert their body fat into energy during exercise. He focuses on the different components of fats‚ such as the adipose tissue‚ blood plasma‚ and the oxidization of fats. He highlights how within the adipose tissue there an estimated 50‚000 to 60‚000 kcal energy stored as triglyceride and an obese individual will have more energy than compared to an

Proteins play an important role in the human body. The DNA molecule controls the synthesis of proteins. The DNA contains genes which are sequences of nucleotides and bases. Proteins are used for growth and repair. Proteins are made up of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Firstly ’amino acid synthesis ’ is the set of biochemical processes by which the various amino acids are produced from other compounds. The substrates for these processes are various compounds in the organism ’s diet

Purine metabolism is central to the production of nucleotides in the body. Imbalances in this process can lead to hyperuricemia which is abnormally high levels of uric acid in the blood [>360μmol/L in females and >400μmol/L in males]. Hyperuricemia can lead to uric acid crystals precipitating in the joints‚ skin‚ vessels and other tissues‚ this is a form of inflammatory arthritis known as gout. Uric acid is a metabolite of purine metabolism therefore gout can aptly be characterized as a disorder

Simply put‚ metabolism is the process of breaking down proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ and fats to yield the energy your body needs to maintain itself. The rate of your metabolism depends on the interaction between the number of calories you consume‚ the number of calories you burn while eating and exercising‚ and the calories you burn based on your individual genetic makeup. How can you increase your metabolism? Well‚ there’s not much you can do about your genes (they only account for a measly 5% of

The Role of ATP in cellular metabolism Cells are required to carry out thousands and thousands of chemical reactions just so everything will remain functioning properly. Every reaction carried out requires energy from a particular source. Cells have come up with their own way of doing this in very well-organized metabolic systems. Each cell type has its own variation of the precise mechanisms. Animals receive energy through aerobic respiration‚ where as plants deliver energy through the act of

Metabolism: Existed evidence notified that changed in the metabolic processes including oxidative stress‚ mitochondrial metabolism and absorption of glucose is concerned to altered MSC differentiation. Mitochondrial metabolism and ROS generation play crucial roles in adipogenic differentiation [37‚ 47-49]. It has been investigated that exogenous hydrogen peroxide increased adipogenic differentiation of MSCs‚ while mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants decreased it. Moreover‚ ROS that generated through
